Crisis

You wake up feeling warm and sweaty, you try to remove your blanket but as you move your arm you feel some resistance. You open your eyes and you look at the naked figure of Kana sleeping next to you, using your arm as a pillow. You stay calm and think about your situation, if you had to guess, the rumor you started yesterday morning took effect during the many hours that followed and Kana is now your girlfriend. Or a member of your harem to be more precise.

You're starting to feel some guilt, you weren't really yourself when you made the post, you were clearly too horny to think straight. But now that it's done, you don't really have the motivation to fix the situation, if you do, it will just get worse anyway.

You look at the time on your phone, 9 am seems like a good time, you gently start waking her up.

"Kana... wake up." She's slowly waking up, but you feel like you'll have to wait a few minutes before she actually lets your arm go.

You wait a while and she grumpily gives you your arm back. She then moves to a sitting position and looks at you.

"What time is it?" She asks.

"It's 9 already."

"Oh right, I did stay up late last night..." You look at her and she does look very sleepy, her hair is a mess but somehow that only makes her look cuter, she's always looking like she's going to kill someone and the contrast with her usual demeanor is quite big.

"Why are you in my bed by the way?"

"Right... I heard you fuck Ashley yesterday, so I waited for you to come home, but when I entered your room you were already asleep so I just... laid down next to you..."

"You heard us fuck?" You thought you'd been quite discreet overall but you were wrong.

"Come on... I'm pretty sure the neighbours heard you fuck... It made me very frustrated..." She says with a teasing tone.

"Kana can that wait? I'm not in the mood right now." You're lying, she clearly made you in the mood, but you don't want to do it here if that means your mom will hear it.

You stand up and she looks at you with begging eyes, you refuse again and you move to the kitchen, to eat your breakfast.

---Later---

You arrive at the hospital, and as usual, the nurse recognizes you, however, this time she doesn't send you to the third floor.

"The patient you're looking for has been moved to room 012, he's in quite the critical state right now, I'll call the doctor to explain the situation."

You wait anxiously for a while when an old man finally arrives, he looks serious and it doesn't help your nerves.

"Mr.Doe? I heard you visit Michael often?"

"Every sunday, what happened to him?" He frowns for a second and makes you follow him.

"He's in a critical state, his situation stabilized but he doesn't have much time left, until now he was in a sort of deep sleep, but right now his brain activity is quasi non existent, I will spare you the details but his health dramatically deteriorated in the last two years... Soon his brain will stop and he'll be declared dead and we will unplug him." Your ears are buzzing, the doctor is still talking but you don't hear his words, all you know is that you're still moving.

The world is dark and you're alone, alone with your thoughts... This is a joke, right? He won't die like that? You're having trouble breathing and you're not helped by the sights of hospital beds all around you. You're scared.

You finally arrive inside Michael's room, which isn't really Michael's room as he's one of the many patients lined up in this big closed space. You sit next to him on a chair the doctor brought you and you cry.

You feel bad, focused on dumb drama while your friend is dying, right under your nose. You want to talk to him, tell him that everything is alright, but the words are stuck in your throat. You just watch his lifeless body, while thinking about the accident again.
